What is a QuantiFERON-TB Gold test?
The QuantiFERON-TB Gold test is an alternative to the skin test that requires a single blood draw and checks for the presence of latent tuberculosis. It is a great alternative for people who test positive on the skin test but do not suspect they have active tuberculosis and want to avoid a chest x-ray. Because this test requires special handling, most lab locations only perform this test during certain hours.

- A lab order from a medical provider

Do I need a separate lab order to get tested?
No. A lab order is authorized by a licensed medical provider in your state and is included in the total.

Once approved (typically in a few hours or less), you will receive an email notification and information on how to access a PDF of your lab order to take to the lab. If, for some reason at the sole discretion of the licensed medical providers, your request cannot be approved, you will receive a full refund.
